Re: copyfile and create duplicate object

Murali:

1)  YOU ARE POSTING TO THE WRONG LIST - USE MIDRANGE-L@MIDRANGE.COM

2)  You need to do more research before asking questions like this.  Please
search the midrange-l archives OR go the IBM web site
(http://as400bks.rochester.ibm.com)
and look up the CPYF command and the CRTDUPOBJ commands and see the
parameters available.  You might also try prompting the commands and READ
THE HELP TEXT.

3) I don't mind helping you out, but you need to help yourself before you
start asking questions like this....
